One Direction slams break up and Harry Styles solo career rumors, promises new albums each year!

One Direction has had to deal with plenty of rumors this year, specifically claims of the international boy band phenomenon splitting up for one reason or another. While we've all been taking each rumor with a grain of salt, the boys recently announced that they were definitely not breaking up any time soon.

"We always hear rumors about us splitting - but we're not," Harry explained to The Sun this past weekend. "We've already started recording our fourth album."

Niall backed up Harry's statement, adding: "The fact we have an album coming should put these rumors to bed. We're here for as long as the fans want us."

At this, Liam Payne promised that the boys would put out a new record "every year - year after year," so definitely look forward to a ton of great new music for a while!

Another indication that One Direction isn't breaking up is the start of the world stadium tour entitled "Where We Are," which kicked off last Friday. Clearly Niall, Harry, Liam, Louis and Zayn are back to work and plan on keeping the band together for as long as they can.

In fact, things got a bit emotional during one of the opening concerts when Liam appeared to start crying on stage. He later took to Twitter to express his gratitude to his fans, saying performing on stage is "The greatest experience of my life."

Also, Niall stirred up some heat on Twitter with a sexy dance move. CLICK HERE to read more on this!
